I recommend listening to Dan’s podcast about the special musical culture found there around the U.P. Music Scene. (Dan has even interviewed the likes of actor-musician Jeff Daniels!)

But my somewhat selfish reason for this blog post is Dan invited me to appear as a guest on his podcast. He asks about some behind-the-scenes info regarding The Songwriting Podcast, but we primarily talk about my journey as a podcast producer and podcast production, in general. So, if you’re thinking about starting your own podcast, then check out the episode here:

2. Listeners, I need your help. Please answer just one poll question for me, and be totally honest:

I’m thinking about creating a digital tutorial product where I (Jason) give instruction, beginning to end, on how to write songs. It would be a professionally produced, audio-visual tutorial that’s accessed online.

Please do me a favor and answer just one question. The votes are anonymous and you could potentially prevent me from making an unwise investment of time and money, if this is something that our listeners aren’t interested in.
